'Justice League’ Movie is Back On, Casting Begins

With the success of Marvel’s ‘The Avengers’, DC Comics has decided to release their own superhero crossover movie.

Many of you probably remember in 2008 when DC Comics and
Warner Brothers announced the upcoming release of a “Justice League” movie. The
film was set to be directed by “Mad Max’s” George Miller, and casting was
already in the works with Adam Brody as The Flash, Megan Gale as Wonder Woman,
and Armie Hammer as Batman. Well, that obviously never came to be… but now with
the incredible success of Marvel’s “The Avengers”, DC and Warner have once
again confirmed the production of “Justice League” with “Gangster Squad”
writer, Will Beall, set to pen the script.

Although Beall was hired months ago, a script hasn’t been
submitted yet. Beall is quite a busy man though, having recently been hired by
Warner Brothers to write the scripts for the “Lethal Weapon” reboot and the
“Logan’s Run” remake.

Additionally, it seems the folks at Warner and DC are
following the same model as Marvel’s “Avengers”. Michael Goldenberg was
recently hired to write the “Wonder Woman” feature film, while Marc Guggenheim
and Michael Green are working on “The Flash”.

So who will play all the “Justice League” superheroes and
which ones will be included?

Christian Bale has expressed interest in reprising his role
as Batman after the next “Dark Knight” installment is released. Henry Cavill stars as Superman in
2013’s “Man of Steel”, so he’s an obvious choice for the “Justice League”.
Since “Wonder Women” and “The Flash” are in the making, I assume those heroes
will be included, but who should play them?

Batman, Superman, Wonder Women, and The Flash were 4 of the
original 7- the other 3 being Green Lantern, Aquaman, and the Martian
Manhunter. Considering the “Green Lantern” film’s lack of success, I assume DC
will pull the same trick Marvel did with ignoring the previous two “Hulk” films
and re-casting the role altogether.

Dozens of heroes joined the “Justice League” roster over the
years including Green Arrow, Captain Marvel, the Atom, Hawkman, Black Canary,
Hawkgirl, Plastic Man, Firestorm, Red Tornado, and Zatanna. Will any of these
characters be included?

Too many questions and not enough answers. I guess we have
to wait and see… but in the meantime, who do you think the new “Justice League”
should be comprised of and which actors should play those roles?
